She was given a percentage of 80, and her essay, with those of the above-mentioned four, are published below: First I'rUe, Flrwt tin Nebraska Is one of the states about to decide the great question of Pro hibition. Friends of saloons say that more liquor Is consumed under Prohibition than high license; that taxes are raised, more law violation occurs, and business is depressed in a dry Btato. Actual records made by the state and county officers of Colorado show that tho amount of liquor consumed this year Is one quart, to every forty- two barrels in 1915. North Dakota has been dry ever since it became a state, and has the lowest tux rate of any state in the union. I'olice records show that ov er one thousand people are arrested daily for intemperance, and over one thousand convicts in our penitentiar ies were brought there because of the use of intoxicants. Poverty in often the product of alcoholic drinks: and more than one- third of the inmates of ulmshousi s owe their state to the use of liquor. The amount spent annually for in toxicating liquor is over one billior dollais. Could not thU nioue he used to better advantage? Now that you see some of the re sults of linuor, Men of Nebraska, be fore you cm s t your ballot, stop and think, then vote Nebraska dry. (Sii'tie.l) KUTII M L'IKII i:AI. Mh grade. Heniingfonl. Nebr. Second IVi.e, First t'la.s The quantity of beer used yearly by our people is over one billion gal lons. The continued use of alcohol hurts the liver, kidneys, heart, blood vessels, and nervous system. The great statesman, Gladstone, said, "It is productive of greater evils than the con bined scourges of war, fam ine and pestilence." Alcohol in nearly every ease caus es poverty and crime. I'olice rec ords show that over one thousand people are arrested every day for dm nkenncss. The saloon eats up men's wages, and brines their families to want. The license is a bribe paid to people to let the saloon alone. The dry city will be found to be more order ly, and a belter place to bring up children. The saloon causes men to go home and threaten to kill their families. When the saloon is oust ed, the men who were once giving their money to the saloon will be seen in the dry-goods, grocery, and shoe stores, buying things for their families. The drunkard is a nuis ance, and a disgrace everywhere. About one million men are drink ing every year to such excess as to cause evident Injury to health. Whis key Is usually made In this country from rye or corn. The strong alco holic drinks are composed of about one-half pure alcohol. It is cert a that over ten thousand convicts in our prisons have been brought there through intemperance, and over thirty per cent of the Inmates of the almshouses owe their unhappy state to alcohol. Vote Nebraska dry. (Signed KLSIE SIMPSON. Sth grade. Alliance, Nebr Flit Prize, Second Class There are several reasons why Ne braska should go dry. Hern use it destroys the home, hin ders the churches, robs the schools and corrupts the ballot. For we have many school mates that we do not want to be drunkards. In the struggle for existence, we will nee our money for necessary things. If we spend our money for clothing, food, house rent, or buildings, we shall have something to show for it; but If we spend it for saloons, we shall find that wilful waste makes woeful want. Why do you spend so much in ed ucating your children and then vote the lie I'-ing of another place to tear down what the school and the home built up? You cannot run a sawmill without logs, nor a gristmill without grain or even a rork crusher without feed ing It rock?; and you cannot run a saloon without furnishing boys from these schools, churches, and homes. Two children, Clarence and Bessie May, last January were left home less, their mother dying in Lincoln from the beating of her drunken husband; their father la now in the Nebraska state penitentiary. The wet of Nebraska are fighting these children. This ia just one case of the many. VIVIAN GILMORE, 5th grade. Dlst. No. 11 Second Prixo, Second Cla There are many reason why Ne braska ahould go dry. The most Important one ia that we need good sober men at the head of our home, our state, and our na tion. How can we expect to be a peaceful. Industrious nation, unless we have men with brains both clear and clean? It is Impossible for men filled with poisonous whiskey to have rlear brains. Nebraska should go dry be cause we need men of our homes so ber. Just picture a father coming home intoxicated. Think of the anguish and horror of his wife and mother as her little children look at their drunken fother. Plrture those lit tle rhildren poorly fed and riot lied, shunned by society, deprived of ev erything that will lit them for a use ful life. That poor, drunken father was once an Intelligent man, making money, going with his wife and fam ily to church, and spending happy evenings at home, until whiskey got its grip on him. See him now come reeling home, or, worse still, lying in the gutter by the saloon. Now, this is why Nebraska should go dry. EDWARD LOUIS KINSELLA. 6th grade. llemingford, Nebr. Honorable Mention, HocoihI 'lnn The question has been asked, why Nebraska should go dry. I am only a little girl of nine years. I cannot vote, so I am not able to help any that way; but hope that the people who can will think of growing boys and girls, and will vote No Saloon. 1 think that all the towns and cities would be better without sa loons, our brothers won't have that temptation before them to learn to drink. The man coming home from work won't have It so easy to drop in and take a drink If we have no saloon, but will save his money and spend it for his family. Some people laugh when they see a man reeling down the street, but I cannot laugh at sun a sight; but have only pity for them. I rannot help but wonder If he is the father of any little boy or girl, and how they must feel when they see him coming home. A man In such a condition would not be very nice to have home. When his brain Is on fire with whiskey, he is sometimes mean to his family, and will do things that he would not do when sober. (Signed) MARY WILSON. 4th grade. Alliance, Nebr.

And no other form of chew can iiive von the hearty, whole some, juicy flavor that you get from a delicious liLdi-gradc thtt tohac- co like Old Kentucky. J lie secret of the greatest chewintr satisfaction lies in the selection of vour chew. Among plug tohaccos the brand that gets the most enthusiastic en dorsement is undoubtedly Old Ken tucky. .The reason for this is not hard to find. Oid Kentucky is made exclusively of ripe Kentucky Hurley the most richly- navorcu chewing tobacco that prows. Still more, only the very choicest of all the Hurley leaf is used for Old Kentucky. This choice leaf is selected with the most painstaking care, is stemmed by band, is thoroughly washed free of all foreign matter and is pressed into plugs so slowly that not a drop of juice or an atom of flavor escapes. Moreover, Old Kentucky is made under the most rigid, cleanly and sanitary conditions. The result is a sweet, mellow, lus cious, satisfying chew that cannot ne obtained in any other tobacco than Old Kentucky. Try a ltic pocket plug to-day. Old Kentucky No. 3 P U L I.

Not content with this great suc cess, however, Scott & Bowne have continued to evolve methods and machinery to keep Scott's Emulsion finer, purer and richer than the Imi tations which patterned after their plans, and today every precaution that human ingenuity can devise is employed to keep Scott's Emulsion the finest and purest medicinal food in the world. The refining of raw cod liver oil as practiced with the crude equip ments available along the Norwegian coast has never squared with the ideals of Scott & ISowne and they have just completed a spacious re fining plant adjoining their labora tories in Dloomfield, N. J., which is refrigerated to the climate of Nor way and equipped with unusual san itary devices which will forever in sure a supreme quality of cod liver oil in every bottle of Scott's Emul sion and place it above and beyond all commercial substitutes which may contain the usual ausplcou or adulterated oils.
